30 images: The cars and the trucks of the 2014 Manila Auto Salon

The 2014 Manila Auto Salon, organized by Tradeshow International, is being staged right now at the SMX Convention Center in the SM Mall of Asia complex. Touted as the country's premier automotive aftermarket show, the event offers vehicles from different eras, from meticulously restored classics to heavily modified versions of cars that are currently sold today.

We visited the show yesterday and noticed a few things. If the Toyota 86 was the tuners' car of choice the past couple of years, the Toyota FJ Cruiser seems to be the favorite this year. Also, there are noticeably fewer cars occupying the floor, so there's less jostling among visitors who want to get a good view of the cars and the babes.

Here are photos we took during our time there. But trust us, these cars and trucks are better seen in the metal.
